SSE2/SSE3 - 32/64 Bit Kernel for Snow Leopard by qoopz! [Intel/AMD]
Quote:
* Bulit-in kernel blacklister – automatically blacklists bad kexts from loading. Therefore you don’t need to use a disabler to disable it manually * bigger dmesg – Which translates to a larger log file so that you can troubleshoot easily * uuid patching/fix – Eliminates the need of UUID kext or specifying manually * fsb detection – Do I’ve to say more on this * cpu cache detection – Again , I don’t have to explain on this * reboot fix – Eliminates the need of OpenHaltRestart and fixes shutdown/reboot issue * sse3emu -SSE3 emulator for SSE2 processors . Bear in mind that most of the applications in Snow Leopard run fine with this emulator. However there are some reports of Safari and certain applications that may crash or behave weirdly. It will not be enabled if you have SSE3 For AMD users , it doesn’t include on the fly CPUID patching – which means that you’ll have to patch your CPUIDs manually by using a third party tool. You could read more about this in my Snow Leopard guide and in other AMD for Snow leopard installation guide. Original Link (Rapidshare) Mirror Link #1 (uploadpla.net) Mirror Link #2 (crimsy) Mirror Link #3 (MediaFire) Installation - To install simply rename your old mach_kernel as mach_backup and rename this as mach_kernel . If you’re planning to install Snow Leopard. Do follow my installation guide as I’ve updated it to reflect SSE2 changes or you may follow other guides ! Please do not forget to read the readme to know more details about this kernel Source Code - The source code (.dff) will be given upon request only. You may contact me directly via e-mail if you want the source. Kernel Name – Some of you may ask why the kernel is named as “anappirtrvh” . which means thx to: azi, nevermind, arya, prasys, p|astikman, inku, roisoft, tomas, radekg, Voodoo, and HiFi the slow tester. – Which is the first name of the beta testers who helped to test the kernel I would like to take this opportuntity to thank qoopz for releasing the kernel for the SSE2 AMD/Intel user community out there. without him , we would be still in darkness and I am guessing he is the guy that would get the ball rolling.

Great! Someone is trying hard for all of us! I'm using this kernel right now and it is working as fine as it should be (some issues with 64 bit "mode"/apps, no cpuid patch for now e.t.c - but all of them are known and described inside kernel's readme).
So, I'm writting this post in order to thank qoopz for his work/time/effort!

Great! It is working fine for me too!

Working fine here so far. I've tried to boot with -force64 but it didn't worked, I'll check my chameleon settings and try again.
EDIT: I cannot restart or turn off properly so I'm back using OpenHaltRestart. Other than that it's all right.

Funny. This kernel looks like a minor improvement of the test7 kernel that had been floating around for AMD cpus for a while now ... ( ie. spec'ed to block certain kexts ... )
Nothing spectacular like the Voodoo kernels were on leopard ... |

My system:
AMD Athlon 64, 2000 MHz 3200+ MSI K8N Neo4-FI/Paltinum nVIDIA nForce4 Ultra, AMD Hammer NVIDIA GeForce 6600 (256 MB) Booting with -force64 indeed makes system work in 64 bits. Activity Monitor shows all programs working in 64 bits. 32 bits VLC player doesn't work, 64 bits works. Quicktime X in 64 bits doesn't work, shows endless "loading movie". Forcing programs to work in 32 bits mode through "Get info" doesn't work. Programs crash. So it seems like every program must be in 64 bits mode, or 32 bits. it is conrtary to the screen shot of Activity Monitor that I've seen where it was obvious that some programs run in 32 bits and some in 64 bits. Kext Utility doesn't work in 64 bits mode. And I still need OpenHaltRestart kext. |

it have some issue wit 64 bit mode in AMD.. i have test this kernel for few day... its made for modified xnu kernel not based on test 7...
hope it will have some improvement soon... Intel Core2Quad Q8400 Gigabyte GA-EP43-UD3L 4 GB kit DDR2 PC 6400 G-Skill BlackEdition 500 Gb Seagate Baracuda SATA GeForce 9600 GT 512 MB GDDR3 256Bit Mac OS X 10.6.2 || Leopard 10.5.8 || Windows 7 Visit my OSX86 Blog : http://osx86.boeaja.info |

does this mean i can use 64 bit on my Intel P4?
